'"ly Dr. Jam«s W. Barton"-1 YOU may be rejected for insurance .because of heart disease, yet the examining physician states that there is no reason why you should not live for a number of years because your heart is well "compensated." What is meant by "compensation," where actual heart disease is present, or has at some time in the past done permanent damage to the heart? A heart with good compensation is when the heart is able to pump blood out of its chambers as fast as blood flows ipto them. Just as long as it doesn't get behind in pumping blood out as fast as it comes in it is considered a well compensated heart and there is no immediate danger. We see individuals rejected for insurance who have enlarged hearts, hearts with leaking valves and some with a certain degree of irregularity, and yet there are no symptoms of heart disease present--shortness of breath, early fatigue, swelling of the feet. What will happen to these individuals should they lose some of this "compensation" and begin to have breathlessness on slight exertion, and tire very easily? Does this mean that they may collapse and pass away within a short time? No. These symptoms--breathlessness and early fatigue--are prompt warnings that the heart is unable to do the amount of work it has been doing and requires one of two methods of help. It may be stimulated to drive the blood out of its chambers by means of digitalis or other heart stimulant, or the individual by doing less work, resting more, does not ask the heart to do as much work and the heart is able to do 'this smaller amount of work without difficulty. Compensation May Be Regained. 3 In the clinic of Drs. Burton E. Hamilton and Carl A. Schuck, Boston Lying In Hospital, as recorded ~#n Medical Clinics of North America, the "double" method of regaining compensation for a heart that is beginning to fail is used. This means that the patient is put at Complete rest in bed (which is often _till that is needed) and the use of heart stimulants. Excess water in the tissues and circulation is removed during the treatment. The clinic's advice, if followed, may mean many more years of life. "The removal of undesirable burdens, keeping free from mouth infections-- teeth, tonsils, sinuses--a measured amount of work or exercise daily, reporting for regular examinations, should prevent sudden or dangerous loss of compensation. These patients are getting the most out of life." Cause of Migraine y Difficult to Discover Migraine is one of the ailments for which no special cause has been found. The pain, in the great majority of cases, is on just one side of the head. Together with this pain there is often nausea and vomiting. Another fact is that it appears to occur at regular intervals. Research physicians in Great Britain and the United States now state that migraine may affect one or both sides of the head and that it is not a single disease but a group of symptoms due to various causes. The clinic of Dr., Theodore J. C. von Storch, Boston City hospital, make some clear statements regarding migraine in "Medical Clinics of North America." The clinic finds, after examination of many cases, that there are usually four outstanding symptoms in a typical case of migraine. 1. Headache, usually but riot always on one side, occurring at more or less frequent intervals. 2. Eye disturbances such as cloudy patches in front of the eyes, pain, tears and fear of light, 3. Stomach and intestinal disturbances, usually nausea aftd vomiting. 4. The family history usually reveals the presence of migraine, epilepsy, or allergy (sensitiveness to foods or other substances) in the patient's immediate family. Many Causes Possible. When all-four of the-above-symp-- toms are present it may safely be called migraine. "Competent observers have considered the migraine syndrome (group of symptoms) to be due to disturbances of the eye, large intestine, liver, stomach, intestine, to poor mental adjustment to life, and •other conditions." ... The clinic, aftef observations of a large series of unselected cases, believes that some cases are due to eye conditions, others to disturbances of liver or other organ, and Others to allergy. , ^ © Bell Syndicate.--WNU Service.
